Twin Names

Hey. I’m new here and looking for advice on twin b/g names.

The girl name will most likely be [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]. I do also like [name_f]Madelyn[/name_f] as a first name, but I have a somewhat negative family association with [name_f]Madeleine[/name_f]. I also kind of like [name_f]Emersyn[/name_f], but I have a work association with [name_u]Emerson[/name_u] that may make things weird. I have a thing for nature names, so [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] are pretty set, and I’m pretty sure I’d like to go with [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f].

Struggling with the boy name.

Middle names with be [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]. The only name I seem to like is [name_u]Owen[/name_u]. [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] and [name_u]James[/name_u] are meaningful to me and non negotiable.

Guessing that’s waaaaay too close to [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f].

If I went with another name, I’d like a name with a tree theme, as Elowyn’s name means [name_u]Elm[/name_u] tree. I was also thinking [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] (olive tree). I really like nature names.

How does [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] sound together?

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] are good together. To me, the only problem is that “Oliver Christopher” sounds kind of weird and repetitive because they are both 3 syllables and end with er.

You said [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] has to stay, so some other first name suggestions are:
[name_u]Forest[/name_u]
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] (means of the forest)
[name_m]Sylvan[/name_m] (means forest)
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] (a kind of tree)
[name_u]Alder[/name_u] (a kind of tree)

Good luck finding your boy name!
I especially like [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m] together.

What about…

[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_u]Forest[/name_u]
[name_u]Larkin[/name_u]
[name_u]Aster[/name_u]
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
[name_u]Arbor[/name_u]
[name_u]Finnegan[/name_u]
[name_u]Ashton[/name_u]
[name_u]Noel[/name_u]
[name_u]Fox[/name_u]

[name_u]Welcome[/name_u] to NB!

I think [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_u]Owen[/name_u] are a bit too close and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] just doesn’t match Elowyn’s whimsical flow.
Maybe:
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_u]Alden[/name_u]
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_m]Forrest[/name_m]
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_m]Oaken[/name_m]
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_m]Linwood[/name_m]
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_u]Hollis[/name_u]
[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] & [name_u]Linden[/name_u]

You may also like [name_u]Lennox[/name_u] for its [name_u]Elm[/name_u] connection and I think it matches Elowyn’s flow and whimsy well.
Hopefully this helps! :slight_smile:

[name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] are a bit too close for me.

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] is nice and solid - my only doubt would be the difference in popularity - but the meaning and sounds work nicely!

Some other ideas:

[name_m]Evander[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (can mean yew tree)
[name_m]Ivar[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (can mean yew tree)
[name_m]Sylvan[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (means forest/trees)
[name_u]Forest[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_u]Laurence[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (from laurels?)
[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (deer forest)
[name_u]Jonah[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] (means dove)
[name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]

It’s not bad! I like how both names have similar flow :evergreen_tree: :dove:

[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] sound great together. I like the way the trees tie them together in a subtle way.

i love elowyn and oliver together. as a previous poster mentioned, oliver christopher doesn’t have the best flow, imo. maybe oliver james christopher, instead? that being said, elowyn juniper wren and oliver christopher james are adorable together. you’ve chosen wonderful names! :strawberry:

I’ve thought about the [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] thing. I know it’s a repetitive sound, but he probably won’t go by his full name much. I do like [name_m]Sylvan[/name_m] though.

Yes, that’s another thing… [name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] is very whimsical. I think I’m just thinking about the loose nature/tree connection. [name_u]Lennox[/name_u] is okay; I haven’t thought about it.

I’ve thought about the popularity thing, but I’m not sure popularity matters as much to me. I do like [name_m]Sylvan[/name_m], [name_m]Ivar[/name_m] and [name_m]Evander[/name_m].

That’s what I like about it. Similar themes without being obvious.

I’ve thought about it. The only thing is that both names have the shorter, one syllable name at the end. If I switched, would it be awkward?

[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m]

It’s not awkward. In fact they kind of match in a new way now, their first middle names both start with j’s. [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] sounds a lot better in my opinion.

They sound good together but I do agree that the [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] do not flow well together; you could do [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m]. That is much better. Other suggestions:

[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] are lovely in my opinion!! They go together beautifully, and if you changed the [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] to [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] like I did, then they’ll have the same second initial as well, which is a cute subtle nod to the fact that they’re twins, without being too matchy like [name_f]Madelyn[/name_f] and [name_u]Madison[/name_u] or [name_f]Anna[/name_f] and [name_f]Hannah[/name_f] like some twins

[name_f]Elowyn[/name_f] [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is a stunning name :slight_smile:
